the government has tried to keep the capital gains and the dividend tax rate basically the same. let's assume they go from 15% to 25%. that means that on capital gains and dividends instead of retaining 85 cents of every dollar you sell you retain only 75 cents. in theory if all investors are taxable tax should decline. we have to remember that only about 20% or 25% of trading is in taxable accounts and that is going down. if you militaryple 1/5 times that 13% we have to reduce it further because most individual taxable investors have long holding periods and most would prefer not to sell it out and not incur any tax. many investors don't have capital gains and the distribution is probably uneven. for example the original investors at facebook have a humongous decision to make not necessarily guys like myself. the calculation also assumes that everyone has an equal level of sophistication and we know that is not true. i would bet that 50% to 75% of people that own stocks in this country don't know that tax rates are rising. >> it's tim. >> grasso turns into a frog after 5:00. >>
